I’ve made a game for Amiga. It’s my first one for this platform. It’s nothing special and I’m aware some of you will be disappointed but I want you to know that the game itself wasn’t my goal. It was just the first important step in achieving something bigger and better (not huge however.) As you all know there are many people with good intentions of creating a game but after many discussion we have only a bunch of forgotten posts. Only few pass through the first stage, and even fewer achieve something satisfactory. Finally, a "chosen" ones finish their projects as planned. So instead of coming here a month ago with another dream-announcement I decided to start and finish the game in silence. I wanted to be, how they say, "a man of his word".
The game isn’t long but I hope some of you will have fun for a moment or two (I just hope no one will be frustrated on it ;)).
Very important notice: English is not my native language (Spanish either) so please, please be considerate and don’t criticize me for wrong translation. I assumed that better not-so-well translated game than nothing. I hope you all agree. Just close your one eye and continue playing imagining what’s the story about; it isn’t very serious so don’t be one 🙂
Here is what you need to start playing:
1. Use ‘help‘ command if you’re lost.
2. Use ‘scenes‘ command if you want to know possible moves.
3. Use ‘talk to‘ command to advance the plot.
Requirements: Hard drive is a must. It should work on 1MB CHIP plus some other memory but I didn’t test it on such configuration. I was programming and testing it on 2MB CHIP, 8MB FAST and 68030 CPU.

This is an adventure type game so if you are stuck and decide to ask a question about a solution please put a text like SPOILER! or something similar. It isn’t hard so I think many of you will want to do it on their own.
Enjoy 🙂
PS Star Wars is copyrighted, I know, but this is non profit production and for a forgotten by the rest of the world computer so I believe no Disney agents come here to mess.
